Frequently asked questions about paper-narrative

What does the paper-narrative skill do?

Judge and reshape the story told by an entire paper figure deck. Use when writing or revising a paper to derive a grounded brief from the manuscript and captions, review the full deck as a handling editor, and hand an ordered figure arc to `figure-composer`. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the paper-narrative skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install open-science-paper-narrative` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/open-science-paper-narrative/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does paper-narrative work with?

paper-narrative runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the paper-narrative skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use paper-narrative after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/open-science-paper-narrative` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the paper-narrative skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
